Republican U.S. Senate nominee Katie Britt continues to post impressive fundraising numbers headed into the closing weeks of the race.

The first-time candidate announced Monday that her campaign raised some $1.362 million last quarter, which was the final quarterly filing before the Nov. 8 general election. Britt ended the quarter with an astounding $1.8 million cash on hand.

Since launching her campaign in June 2021, Britt has raised more than $10.26 million. A majority of the funds were donated by individual Alabamians.

The average contribution amount of $98.06 in 13,892 total contributions indicates that Britt holds strong grassroots support among the Alabama electorate.

In comparison, Democratic nominee Will Boyd raised $45,072.23 in the third quarter and closed the filing period with just $8,260.48 cash on hand. Boyd reported 48 itemized contributions in the three-month period.

Britt praised the overwhelming support her candidacy has received from “hardworking families.”

“I am blown away by the generous, enthusiastic support we’re receiving from hardworking families who love our state and our country,” said Britt. “It is clear that the closer November 8 gets, the more our message is resonating. Americans are getting crushed by the unchecked consequences of one-party Democratic rule in Washington, D.C., and Alabamians are eager to make our voices heard at the ballot box.”

“We are going to continue working hard every single day these next three weeks to secure victory and do our part to retake the U.S. Senate. Together, with our incredible Team Britt supporters, we will preserve the American dream for our children and our children’s children.”

In 2021, Britt raised more than $5 million in six months, which represented the largest single-year fundraising haul of any Republican candidate in Alabama history.
